What does it show in the Log ? It could be that the database is corrupted and needs to be rebuilt.

I have been having issue with Blue Iris seeming to reset at various instances. The DB goes through its process of apparently rebuilding.. indexing..verifying.. compacting, etc maybe I have wrong order.

I have a Large DB over 250,000 records. Is there a limit, or practical limit? I have more than enough physical space (2TB) just for the DB, currently showing 7,337,721 records.

When the reset occurs, BI does not allow any console activity, other than watching the DB status do its thing. This takes several minutes (5 to 10?) Also status during this time shows drive(s) over allocated; but, once DB is finalized with rebuild/reset, The Overallocated clears.

I temporarily have disabled several cameras during the day and this does not seem to help.

I've had this going on now intermittently for several weeks.
Currently have 12 cameras (4 @ H.264, 8 @ H.265) running jpegs every 3 seconds to NAS, and motion to BI Server, Not using any AI currently.

Currently running 5.9.5.4 (again) I've tried some of the older versions, same results.
I'd include the log file, but the problem hasn't happened since the last time I changed versions.
